Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt Paint 2.5L - Sage Green

This paint is best suited for interior walls and ceilings, including plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces in good condition.

Generally, two coats are recommended for optimal coverage and a uniform finish. However, this may vary depending on the existing surface colour and condition.

The paint is quick-drying. Touch dry times are typically around 1-2 hours, with recoating possible after 2-4 hours, but always refer to the product label for precise drying times.

While it can be used, a vinyl matt finish is generally not recommended for high-moisture areas like bathrooms or kitchens where a more durable, washable finish (like vinyl silk or eggshell) might be preferable.

The vinyl matt finish offers some washability, allowing for gentle cleaning with a damp cloth. However, it is not as durable or scrubbable as gloss or silk finishes.

The paint offers excellent coverage, typically around 12-15 square meters per litre per coat, but this can vary based on the surface texture and absorbency.

This product is mixed to order to achieve the specific Sage Green colour. As a custom-mixed product, it cannot be returned or refunded unless faulty.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared and primed. Stir the paint thoroughly and apply in consistent, overlapping strokes. Consider a third coat if necessary.

Ensure you are using good quality application tools. Apply thin, even coats and avoid overworking the paint. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Allow the paint to dry completely, as the colour can change slightly. Ensure adequate lighting in the room to assess the true colour. Check that you have applied the recommended number of coats.

This usually indicates poor surface preparation or incompatible primer. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and sound before application. Remove any loose paint and re-prime if necessary.
